Harold Brokke (May 27, 1924 – July 13, 2011) was an American preacher, missionary, and educator whose ministry within evangelical Christianity spanned over six decades, emphasizing biblical teaching and global missions. Born in Thief River Falls, Minnesota, to Henry Brokke and Josephine Larson, he grew up in a devout family, shaped by Norwegian immigrant roots and a farming community. Converted at a young age, he graduated from high school in 1942, served in the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II as a bombardier with the 13th Air Force in the South Pacific, and later earned a Bachelor of Theology from Bethany Bible Institute in Minneapolis, followed by further studies in theology. Brokke’s preaching career began in the 1950s as a missionary to Japan with his wife, Hazel, where they served for over a decade, planting churches and preaching the gospel in post-war communities. Returning to the U.S., he joined Bethany Fellowship in Bloomington, Minnesota, becoming a pastor and professor at Bethany College of Missions, where he taught biblical studies and missions until retiring in 1992, later serving as Professor Emeritus. His sermons, focusing on grace, obedience, and spiritual vitality—reflected in books like A Guide to Understanding Romans (1964), Prosperidade Pela Obediência, and The Law is Holy—reached audiences through missionary conferences and writings. Married to Hazel Carlson in 1949, with whom he had four children—David, Mark, Carol, and Ruth—he passed away at age 87 in Bloomington, Minnesota.
